Some Most Frequently Used ADB and Fastboot Commands

Every noob to Android has tried to stay away from ADB (or Terminal on Mac) for as long as possible. Yes, it sounds too techy at times and in order to reach it there are preliminary steps which make us tense of reaching it in the first place. But trust me, once you are there, rest is piece of cake. And as long as you are avoiding it, you are losing out on way too much. Go through this post, it should introduce you to the process, if not convince you to start altogether.

The ADB mode lets you do a lot of stuff which can help you get the most out of your Android device. Of course, a toolkit (like Wugfresh or HTC RUU) is much easier but chances are, you may not always find a toolkit for your device, so it pays to know this.
